Chapter 435: seaweed seaweed, swaying with the waves

Chapter 435 Seaweed Seaweed, drifting with the waves

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, the father and daughter came outside the door to set off fireworks.

In the dark night, fireworks and firecrackers bloom in colorful splendor, which is more dazzling than the red plums in the yard.

When she lived in Laojie, Ling Chunhua also saw fireworks, but it was a long distance away, as far away as looking up at the stars in the sky.

Now, fireworks that are brighter than the stars are blooming in the hands, that kind of joy and satisfaction are enough to warm and amaze Ling Chunhua's entire childhood.



This Spring Festival is special to Yunmo. It is the first Spring Festival since she came here, and it is also the first Spring Festival without fireworks.

At first, she also thought about buying some fireworks and firecrackers from the city and setting them off to have fun, but after learning that no one in the village had ever set off fireworks, she gave up the idea.

Woods are beautiful in the forest, but the wind will destroy them.

The Huang family's bamboo weaving factory is high-profile enough, too much publicity will only bring unnecessary criticism and disaster to the Huang family.

Huang's family doesn't have a TV set, it should be said that the whole village doesn't have one.

Recreational activities during the Chinese New Year, that is, playing poker or long cards at home, visiting relatives and friends, visiting temple fairs, etc.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Huang Kailin and Huang Jianye played long cards in the main room, Yang Xinghua, Huang Zhiqiu, and Liu Zhi sat watching and chatting, while Huang Yu and Yun Mo were upstairs fighting landlords, betting on their lucky money.

"Wang Zha! Haha, cousin, you lost again!"

Huang Qingning is the big winner tonight, and the pennies in front of him have piled up into a hill.

Huang Yu lost some, Yunmo lost the most, and there are not many tickets left in front of him.

Huang Qingning was embarrassed even after winning, he laughed and said, "Cousin, do you want to rest for a while? Let my cousin-in-law help you play a few rounds."

Yunmo rubbed her hot face, the stamina of that Wuliangye was really great, so she drank an extra cup, she would feel dizzy all over, and the cards were played randomly, so it was inevitable to lose avoid.

After giving up the seat to Ling Chuan, Yunmo went downstairs to go to the bathroom to get some air.

The night in the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month is really cold, and the Huang family is backed by mountains and forests, so the temperature is even lower, and when I open my mouth, it is full of white mist.

After going to the toilet, her mind cleared up a bit, and Yunmo went to the main room to watch the elders play long cards.

Huang Jianjun has a dull temper, but his card skills are not bad. There is a large pile of broad beans in front of him.

One broad bean costs five cents, and this large handful of broad beans is estimated to cost four or five yuan.

"Momo, why did you come down?"

Seeing her, Huang Zhiqiu smiled and pulled her to sit down.

Yunmo leaned her head on the opponent's shoulder, "I've lost a lot, come down and get some air."

Hearing her soft voice and the smell of alcohol, Huang Zhiqiu touched her face in surprise and amused, "Aren't you drunk?"

"No."

"He still said no, his face is so red."

Yang Xinghua heard this, and hurriedly said: "There is still soup in the pot, it should still be hot, go scoop up a bowl to relieve Momo from the hangover."

Yunmo quickly shook her head, "I don't want chicken soup, it's too oily, I want sweet wine soup."

Huang Zhiqiu couldn't laugh or cry, "You're still drinking sweet wine, you're so drunk."

"I'm not drunk, really, if you don't believe me, I'll dance for you."

After speaking, Yunmo got up and began to dance, dancing and singing: "Seaweed, seaweed, swaying with the waves, seaweed, seaweed, seaweed, seaweed..."

What are you singing about?

There is also this dance, how can anyone dance like this, it is like crazy.

It’s fine if Yunmo doesn’t dance, but when she dances, everyone thinks she’s drunk, and not too drunk.

Yang Xinghua immediately told her daughter-in-law Liu Zhi, "Quickly, go and scoop up a bowl of soup for Momo, and skim off the oil on the surface, she doesn't like to drink oil."

"Put some pea tips into the soup and cook without oil."

"The pea tips were all eaten at night."

Huang Kailin raised his foot and kicked the boss Huang Jianjun, "Take the flashlight and go to the field to pick a handful of pea tips and come back."

"Row."

Huang Jianjun was a little reluctant to part with the good cards in his hand, "I'll go after I finish playing this one."

"What are you still playing? Can you save money by playing less? Hurry up."

"…understood."

After Huang Jianjun went out depressed, Huang Kailin ordered his daughter to take his granddaughter upstairs to rest.

After only he and his wife were left in the main room, he quickly picked up the cards that his son had put on the table.

"You brat, what did you do today, you're so lucky."

While talking, he secretly changed two cards.

Yang Xinghua looked at his wife with some distaste, "If you can't afford to lose, then don't fight. You are playing tricks with your son, and you are not afraid of embarrassment."

Huang Kailin couldn't save himself from the words, so he simply put away his cards, "Okay, stop playing, I'm going to sleep with a bowl of soup."

"You don't keep the old age anymore?"

"If you don't keep it, let the young people keep it."

Upstairs, watching Huang Yu brother and sister playing cards in the room where their daughter slept, Huang Zhiqiu took her daughter to his room.

"Momo, go to bed and lie down for a while, I'll go downstairs and fetch a basin of hot water to wipe your face."

"Mom, I'm really not drunk. If you don't believe me, bring me a book and I'll read it to you..."

But no matter what Yunmo explained, Huang Zhiqiu felt that she was talking drunk, and told her to lie on the bed no matter what she said.

Hey, just lie down.

As soon as Huang Zhiqiu left, Ling Chuan came over. Seeing her lying on the bed, he hurried to the bedside.

"Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

Yunmo raised her face and looked at the man with a smile, "Did you win or lose?"

Ling Chuan was a little embarrassed, "If you lose, you lose all your money."

Yun Mo raised her hand and patted the edge of the bed, "It's okay, you can sit down for a while, Mom will bring soup for us to drink later."

Ling Chuan sat down obediently, staring at her with black eyes.

"Daughter-in-law, your face is very red, is there any discomfort?"

"The aftertaste of drinking is a bit strong, and it will be fine after a while."

While talking, Huang Yu and Huang Qingning also came over, seeing Yunmo lying on the bed, they were very concerned.

Huang Qingning mistakenly thought that Yunmo was unhappy because of the loss, and clamored to return all the winning money to her.

Yun Mo pinched the tip of the other's nose in a funny way, "Fool, I don't even have enough money to take a taxi, you save it to buy candy."

After finishing speaking, he asked again, "Is it enough? My cousin will give you some more."

Yun Mo reached into her pocket, took out a few ten-yuan bills, counted two and handed them to Huang Qingning.

"Here, you can use it to buy candy, stationery, and materials."

20 yuan, that's their monthly salary in the winery.

Both Huang Qingning and Huang Yu were stunned by Yunmo's generosity.

Seeing that Huang Qingning refused to answer in a daze, Yunmo blinked and said, "Do you think it's too little? Then I'll give you all of these."

There were about sixty or seventy yuan, and Yunmo stuffed all of it into Huang Qingning's hands.

Huang Qingning reacted belatedly, "Cousin, you, are you drunk?"

"No, I'm awake..."

Before he finished speaking, Huang Zhiqiu came in, holding a large bowl of hot pea and chicken soup in his hand.

"Momo, get up and drink soup."

"Mom, let me do it."

Ling Chuan took the soup bowl from Huang Zhiqiu and blew gently.

Huang Qingning took the opportunity to give the money to Huang Zhiqiu, "Auntie, my cousin is drunk and insists on giving me the money..."
